What gifts?
Such a great group of women in our Kingdom Community
Prayer with this group
Good, honest, loving coworker
Restful day after Kingdom Community
Where I felt the most alive and responsive:
Praying and discussing the things of God
Learning from documentary "Now We Rise" on PBS
Watching the end of The Young Messiah - uplifting film
Where did I feel most dead and unresponsive:
Student asking for special treatment who has missed many classes
Early Wednesday morning: waking up to a being called a derogatory name on Twitter for asking a question about a statistic given in the documentary
One practical thing that we an commit to that will express our love for God and others:
"See double" in my students: See them as Christ does - we see the person as he is and the person Christ longs to make him. (The Game with Minutes, p. 97)
Yesterday's love:
Lovingly lead my Kingdom Community this morning. Lovingly respond to the person on the other end of a conference call this afternoon. Lovingly say that we are breaking until after the first of the year.
Good meeting. Conference call went really well (such a hard navigation when you have to evaluate someone's fitness for a job). The group wanted to meet on November 29, but it will not be a regular meeting. Just prayer and storytelling. It will be easier for me to prepare for.
"What makes the desert beautiful is that somewhere it hides a well" (The Little Prince by de Saint-Exupéry). One woman's journey to wellness through a well-adjusted heart, well-watered soul, well-educated mind, and well-tuned body. "Love the Lord your God with all your HEART, and with all your SOUL, and with all your MIND, and with all your STRENGTH" (Mark 12:30-31).
